Beliefs & Values

What we believe...

God

God is the author and creator of the universe who spoke it into existence. He has eternally existed in three equal persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Jesus

Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God. He lived a perfect, sinless life and was crucified on a cross as a sacrifice for the sins of the world. He was buried but was raised to life after three days to show His power over sin, death, and the grave.

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son. He was promised to be present once Jesus ascended into heaven. The believer receives the Holy Spirit inside them from the acceptance of salvation and seeks to live by the Holy Spirit's guidance and power on a daily basis.

The Bible

the Bible is God's Word to man, written by man, following the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. the Bible is the road map for Christians seeking to navigate life by its absolute truths and principles.

Man

Man was created in the image of God to have a relationship with God. However, man was separated from God by disobedience, called sin.

Salvation

Salvation is God's grace to man. His free gift bridges the gap back to God that was ultimately created by the sin of man. Faith and trust in God's offer of forgiveness from sin is what saves us from the penalty of sin, giving us eternal life with Him.

Baptism

Water baptism is a picture of Christ's death, burial, and resurrection. Immersion baptism exemplifies death to our selfish, sinful ways that are buried under the water. As we are brought up from the water, we are raised to new life as Jesus did, showing the world we live a new life and our old life is dead, but we are restored and washed clean by Jesus' blood shed for us on the cross.
